On the 4-D Chess circuit, Kennedy, in a chat with Cory Lewendowski about the anonymous OpEd writer, brings up comments from Kennedy that twitterer's suggest that this is 4-D Chess, secretly slipped to the NYTimes by secret Trump surrogates, in order to get Woodward's Book off the front pages as old news, and to give Trump a great attack avenue of criticizing the Times and the MSM, while at the same time doing being able to dump on and dismiss WoodWard's fake reporting as simply more of the same.

I like Rocco's suggestion; the guy seems mental and a complete prick to his wife.

From Frau's link:

Sometime later I spoke with George W. Bush’s Director of Central Intelligence, General Michael Hayden. “We were sorry that [Muslim Brotherhood leader Mohamed] Morsi was overthrown” in July 2013, Hayden explained. “We wanted to see what would happen when the Muslim Brotherhood had to take responsibility for picking up the garbage.”

“General,” I remonstrated, “when Morsi was overthrown, Egypt had three weeks of wheat supplies on hand. The country was on the brink of starvation!” “I guess that experiment would have been tough on the ordinary Egyptian,” Hayden replied.

He wasn’t joking. The ideological commitment of the Establishment to a new global order made facts irrelevant. If things weren’t that way, they should have been that way.

Hayden used to appear on Fox News Sunday quite a bit and he seemed ok but didn't seem to be mentally all there, particularly a disturbingly creepy way of smiling at inappropriate times. At the time I just assumed he was restraining himself from choking Chris Wallace out, but now I'm thinking it was more. Anyway it's no surprise that he was an establishment tool.

Would someone please tell the fakemedia Trump has been President for 18 months and not one thing they have warned us about has come true? In fact most times the 180 degree opposite has come true. I mean I'm okay watching a player have a batting avg of .200 but a .000 one?

It is a perfect name. I used to live in a wooded area and every morning I would find trash in our car port.

One night I was up late studying and I heard noise. Went out and there were 6 raccoons working as a team: two in the garbage can rummaging around and passing the goodies up, while the other four were on the floor waiting for stuff to be thrown to them.

Cory Booker is smearing Kavanaugh as a closet racist by reading e-Mails from 2002 that Booker will not provide to Kavanaugh so he can see what the E-Mail is about. Kavanaugh does not know the context and also pointed out that from listening to Booker's reading of the words, that the words were not Kavanaugh's but probably or possibly some clients, and asks repeatedly to give him the E-Mail but Booker refuses at the moment, says he will give him the E-Mails later. Also, as he continues reading selective sentences, Kavanaugh replies that from what Booker just read it sounds to Kavanaugh like Kavanaugh was on the opposing side of the E-mail issue that Booker is trying to smear him as a Racist with. Big time smear job, and in my view, totally unfair. Without question Booker is playing to his 2020 Presidential Campaign video.

Trump inherited a host of problems from the failed Establishment consensus. The greatest of these was the rise of China, which invested in advanced weaponry while the United States spent nearly $6 trillion on its end-of-history illusion.

If the United States had devoted a small fraction of that $6 trillion to frontier research in military technologies, America still would be the unchallenged hyperpower.

What did we get instead for our $6 trillion? Even had Barry not lost Iraq, what would we have gained worth $6 trillion and a much less secure position against our real strategic enemies?

The Horde is claiming that Fat Erickson is claiming the source is Elaine Chao, which seems absolutely absurd to me and completely justifies Red State sending that attention deprived slob packing along with the slimmer lunatic.

Pin, I did a lot of Section 8 rental housing in Philadelphia in the 80s. I know what it takes to make a neighborhood better. I also know what stops improvement. Building trolleys instead of policing neighborhoods, putting unions ahead of children in public schools, these things will destroy any place. Politicians in Milwaukee get power and riches from screwing things up. Not worth investing there, better returns for society where the locals help.

Just a couple years ago, Hughes was one of the most nationally visible and hardcore Trumpworld luminaries. The conservative author and onetime Tea Party News Network news director frequently appeared on CNN as a prominent pro-Trump contributor. She was praised and oft-watched by Donald J. Trump himself, enjoyed some face time with him during the 2016 race, and campaigned for him as an early supporter in 2015.

She was a high-profile enough Trump booster that she was even lampooned on NBC’s long-running comedy show Saturday Night Live, in a 2016 sketch she knocked at the time as an example of “the ultimate sexism.”.
